Day With Daddy

We had a pretty eventful week this week. Grace had her last Early Intervention appointment, really wasn't an appointment just a follow up from her final evaluation. Grace scored at or above her age in all areas. In retrospect, we don't really think Grace needed EI services but we figured they couldn't hurt and she seemed to enjoy them.

The winter we have had this year seems to be worse than anyone can remember. Not only have we gotten a ton of snow but the temperatures have been extremely cold. Until this weekend that is when it warmed up to 50 degrees. Which means the snow on our roof is melting, really fast, and leaking into our windows. We ended up sleeping in the spare bedroom last night because the drip, drip, drip in our bedroom was driving us a bit batty. Seems to have stopped for now though.

The weather is getting to Jen a little bit as well, being cooped up in the house all week with a 16 month old can drive one a bit insane. Luckily she had a play date planned with Kris, Karina and Kathryn that broke up the week a bit for her. Jen also had a get together down in Connecticut with some friends from college. She had a great time catching up and I got to spend the day with Grace.

We started the day with a visit to my mom's and spent the afternoon just hanging out at home. I decided to be a little daring and attempt a dinner out in a restaurant with just Grace and I. I decided to go with a family friendly place so we went to Fuddruckers. It worked out pretty well except for the fact that there was no waitress service so every time I needed to get up for something I had to unstrap Grace from her chair and take her with me. I also had a minor panic attack when I realized that if either Grace or I needed to use the bathroom I may need to take her into the men's room with me. Not sure if Fuddruckers has a family restroom but luckily we didn't have to find out.
